Free National Lotto - I WOULD ADVISE TO AVOID

I have been checking these numbers every day for years. Recently my numbers came up but I have received nothing and the company not only does not reply to polite requests for updates but also deletes any requests for response off their Facebook page. Their Twitter count has been suspended. Both their own page and the Facebook reviews are littered with complaints, peppered with a few payouts here and there so I know there will be some people who will have received their money. My guess is that they pay a few out here and there.  
Yes the winning was only £5. Yes it costs nothing to enter. I'm really not going to lose any sleep over £5 but I am incredibly unhappy with the misrepresentation. My posts were deleted IMMEDIATELY off Facebook so they are present, just choosing to ignore. I am going to give them 24 hours then start to look into reporting them for misrepresentation of competitions.

I won twice in quick succession a while ago and both were paid to PayPal after a short while. So this seems surprising but also concerning. I hope you get your winnings.

It seems as though they pay enough people just to keep it ticking over and looking genuine but as you can see my numbers came up, I claimed immediately, they have ignored all emails/deleted Facebook posts since. Rated 2 stars generally and many people not paid.
